Translated, with revision and updating, from the original French edition of 1990 (Astrophysique: Les Etoiles (Paris: InterEditions et Editions du CNRS), this comprehensive but rigorous text is a modern treatment of the physics of stars, building on the theoretical and observational advances of recent years. Among the topics are nuclear reactions in stars, stellar evolution, mass load and stellar wind, the hydrodynamics of stellar interiors, variability, and solar and stellar activity. For advanced undergraduate and beginning graduate students. Annotation copyright by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR3.20.) The HR diagrams of globular clusters are sensitive to the chemical
composition of the material from which the cluster formed. As a result, main-
sequence fitting to produce a composite HR diagram is more difficult than for
open clusters.
